Camp Out At EDSA Shang!
posted on Friday, April 17, 2009
I fondly remember the first camp I attended as a kid. It wasn't in a jungle as I visualized and hoped it to be. Clad in our green and yellow uniform, my co-scouts and I stayed inside the school grounds for two days. During that camp, we bonded, played, and basically did all the things we could only dream about during a regular school day. Though the camp wasn't held in the mountains, or at least somewhere outdoors, the thought that for a day I'd stay in school, tend for myself, and roast marshmallows in an actual bonfire was already good enough for me.

This weekend spells out celebration for the Chinese and non-Chinese folk, as everyone welcomes the Year of the Earth Ox. For 2009, the Chinese New Year begins on Monday, January 26th. The ox is said to be patient, steadfast and hardworking, and these are good traits to imbibe in ourselves to usher in new beginnings.

A kid from the 90's who grew up in Manila would have spent an afternoon with friends in a game of laser tag. I fondly remember how Shangri-La Mall's Q-Zar and Megamall's Laser Quest were the hottest hang-outs for us 90s kids. The thrill of teaming up with your friends, donning that bulky vest, and of course, arming yourself with an even bulkier laser gun -- they're what we called fun back then. It was a sci-fi dream come true! If I remember correctly, Q-Zar had a green and orange team, and Laser Quest can let you type in your player name before the game. I think there was even a time when my mom would join us with our friends in the fun!
